Context:
During project execution, project managers ensure that project work is completed as specified in the
Project Management Plan and according to project requirements. Requirements may change
throughout the course of a project. Changes need to be controlled, ensuring all of thei
r
impacts upon
the project are managed effectively and are incorporated into existing management plans and project
baselines.
The process of directing and managing project work requires project managers to take on numerous
responsibilities and to exhibit characteristics such as attention to detail, constant communication and
effective leadership.
Instructions:
For this Assessment refer to the assessment case study found in Key Learning Resources.
PROJ6003_Assessment 1 Brief_July 2019.Docx Page 2 of 9
There are two parts for this assessment: 1 Discussion Forum (Part A) that prepares students to
write a Change Management Plan (Part B).
Each student will construct an initial response in approximately 500 words to the following questions
and post on the Module discussion forums. Students will be graded individually on how students
demonstrate/share project change management theories and contribute to the general discussion of
the topic over weeks 2, 3 & 4 as well as their 250-words written response. The initial and responding
posts must be submitted by the end of Module 2 (Total 750 words).
Part A: Module 1-2 Discussion Forums
Managing Project Changes
Why is change management a necessary component of project management? Consider the given case
study, critically analyse and identify key issues that could lead to any necessary changes in the project.
What processes or strategies do you think would work best to perform the identified change requests
from the case study?
Output:
Part A – Complete your posts by the end of Module 2.
Part B: Change Control
Based upon the given case study, in groups or as an individual, develop a report on change control. In
the report:
1. Identify changes required for the case study. Critically analyse their impact on scope, time,
cost, quality of the project and the techniques used to manage them.
2. Explain what processes are involved in submitting a request to deal with the changes
necessary from your analysis of the case study.
3. Identify and discuss options to satisfy each change request and any risks associated to the
options.
4. Complete the change request/control form provided or one that is used from a workplace.
The written part of your change control report should consist of 1500 words/student.
If you work in group, nominate a group leader and this group leader will submit the assessment on
behalf of the group.
Output:
Complete and submit your change control report by the end of Module 3.

Change Control Tools and Techniques
Introduction

Being able to apply the project management skills you learn to a real world situation is
critical to becoming a project manager. Each project has its own unique challenges and
it is important to learn how to analyse and address them.
Change is almost inevitable in projects, and effective management of change is
necessary to enable a project to proceed as planned. Effective management of change
means subjecting all requests to the change control process, identifying all the impacts
of changes on the project objectives, and communicating project status to project
stakeholders as defined in the Communications and/or Stakeholder Management
Plan(s).
Project Management Videos. (2013). How to Control Change Requests on a Project
(Streaming video). Retrieved from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WWdgFFVkPgA
Tools utilised for the management of change can be manual or automated, and should
be selected as appropriate for each project. They need to meet the needs of
stakeholders as well as organisational and environmental factors.

Directing and Managing Project Work
Introduction
PMStudyChannel. (2014). PMBOK C2 M4 Direct And Manage Project Execution.
Retrieved from https://youtu.be/Ziub-onbkjY
When a project management plan has been created, project managers are challenged
with ensuring that project work is completed as specified and that all project
requirements are met as the work is executed. In order to accomplish this, project
managers monitor and control project deliverables, assess the project progress and
performance and manage the project scope.
During project execution, project managers ensure that project work is completed as
specified in the project management plan and according to project requirements. This
process of directing and managing project work requires project managers to take on a
series of responsibilities and to exhibit attention to detail, constant communication and
leadership among several other characteristics.
This module will cover:
Monitoring the status of project activities.
Control of project and changes to project baselines.

As project work is executed, project managers make certain that quality assurance is performed
